Gaiters

[K9Pig]

How many drysuit divers use the Dive Rite Gaiters? And are they worth it?

Just bought some a couple of weeks ago for cave diving. Verdict is still out for me, but so far I think they do help a little, but it's still possible to get enough air trapped to cause trim issues.

I have a suit that has legs that are, well puffy. I decided to get some gaiters to fix the problem and they have worked great so far.

I have them and use them to control suit material/air in the ankles. They aren't perfect but they do work well for me.

As for are they worth it - it depends. Do you have excess material in your legs that traps air? If so, they work well for that. If not, well, then you don't need them.

i have a vulcanized rubber suit so my feet like to fill up with air, i use the dive rite gaiters an they work great.

I have a set brand new never wet (got them for a dry suit that ended up being WAY to big). Make me an offer and they are yours.....

What do you want for them? I am shopping for a pair to go with a drysuit that fits me!

Thanks for the responses...

I thought they only came in "one size fits all."

the gators do only come in one size fits all. they have elastic bands that clip in, then you put velcro over the clips to make sure they dont come off.

drysuits on the other hand, do come in different sizes.
